What happened to the archive of old versions of this article? edit

For many years, Global warming and Climate change were separate articles, each with its own archive where we could read all previous versions of the page.

Climate change: Revision history has these versions going all the way back to October 30, 2001.

On the other hand, Global warming: Revision history only has versions going back to August 21, 2020.

Why have all the older versions of Global warming: Revision history been erased?

They weren't erased. After we had enough online discussion to wear out a Gutenberg printing press, much the former "climate change" article evolved into our current Climate system article. This cleared the way for the article titled "global warming" to simply be moved (aka renamed) to "climate change". When the move happened, the talk:global_warming page went with it and because Talk:Climate change. The archives did likewise. You can access them from Talk:Climate change. I'll be glad to help if you still need help. There is a very active climate change wikiproject too, where you say hi NewsAndEventsGuy (talk) 15:31, 13 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
